Yurasov Takes A Big Bite Out Of Saad
Niveau 21
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Dmitry Yurasov raised to 35,000 on the button and Elie Saad defended his big blind. The flop came 
and Saad check-called a 35,000 bet. On the 
turn, Saad checked again. Yurasov had no intention of slowing down and fired 105,000, which Saad called.
Saad checked a third time on the 
river. Yurasov emptied the clip, this time coming up with a hefty bet of 240,000. Saad, one of the few amateurs left in the field, sunk back in his chair and counted out his stack. He called it off after a minute, but Yurasov showed him the bad news with 
for the nut flush.
Saad lost nearly half his stack in the hand and stood up from his chair to ease his emotions.
